Consider a simple pendulum, having a bob attached to a string, that oscillates under the action of the force of gravity. Suppose that the period of oscillation of the simple pendulum depends on its length (l), mass of the bob (m) and acceleration due to gravity (g). Derive the expression for its time period using method of dimensions.

Time period of a simple pendulum of length 'L' is T_(1) . Time period of a uniform rod of same length 'L' suspended from one end and oscillating in a vertical plane is T_(2) . Amplitude of oscillation is small in both the cases . Them (T_(1))/(T_(2)) is

A bob of mass 0.1 kg hung from the ceiling of a room by a string 2 m long is set into oscillation. The speed of the bob at its mean position is 1 m s^(-1) . What is the trajectory of the bob if the string is cut when the bob is (a) at one of its extreme positions, (b) at its mean position.

(A) : For an oscillating simple pendulum, the tension in the string is maximum at the means positions and minimum at the extreme position. (R) : The velocity of oscillating bob in simple harmonic motion is maximum at the mean position.
